how not repeat the path directory

[n3mo]

hi men (and women) i have octave 3.2.0 with windows vista, and i have a very annoying problem....
in every line octave repeat the path directory and i must write the command in a new line...
i copy an example with diary to explain the problem

octave-3.2.0.exe:15:c:\octave
> x=2
x =  2
octave-3.2.0.exe:16:c:\octave
> y=3
y =  3
octave-3.2.0.exe:17:c:\octave
> c=x-y
c = -1
octave-3.2.0.exe:18:c:\octave
> diary off


this is very annoying...how can i write all in a line to see better what i wrote? i want something like this:

octave-3.2.0.exe:15:c:\octave> x=2
x =  2
octave-3.2.0.exe:16:c:\octave> y=3
y =  3
octave-3.2.0.exe:17:c:\octave> c=x-y
c = -1
octave-3.2.0.exe:18:c:\octave> diary off

so it will be easier to read the commands i wrote....

thanks very much

Hello,,
you should set the variable "PS1" (type help PS1 to see the options)  
as you wish. To do it pernamently, set it in your .octaverc file (more  
about configuration files of Octave is in The Manual here:  
http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Startup-Files.html#Startup-Files)
Thread about this problem (prompt and PS1) and its solution is here:

Enjoy.
Best,
martin w.
